Hello All,
In need of some help here. Recording some electric guitar here and I'm getting a weird high end buzz from my amp. It's hardly noticeable when playing my guitar in practice or at show, but when recording, it is extremely noticeable. I've attached a file so you can hear what I'm talking about. I'm playing the Gibson B.B. King Lucille through a '65 Fender Super Reverb Reissue. The amp volume is at about a 3.8. I've recorded through other tube amps in the past and haven't had any issues. Also, I just recently replaced the tubes in my Super Reverb. They were about a year and a half old and I thought the buzz was coming from the old tubes. However, after changing them, the buzz is still just as present.
The recording is broken into three parts. The first part has my SM57 pointed straight at the speaker, slightly off center from the cone. The second part has the SM57 about a foot and half from the grille, pointed directly at the center of the amp, in between the 4 speakers. The last part has the same mic configuration but I have my Luther Drive Pedal turned on.
If you have any advice as to what the cause is, how I can fix it, or if you've heard anything similar, be sure to let me know. Thanks!
Pete
